One of my favourite videos on KZbin, I'm just starting to butter at 56yrs old. This is very inspirational

[@franckdebank]

Age doesn't matter when coming to an edge.Good luck

[@pubfixture]

Hey you're 60 now! Happy birthday how's the buttering?

[@codshortclips]

I guess he's never heard of catching an edge. This is so cool to watch.

[@GniatTaing]

He's probably caught many edges learning this :P

[@georgegu3374]

i'm sure ryan's caight more edges than most of us to expertise in carving & buttering

[@DavideNastri]

Hail to the butter king! That is the trick I am going to learn this year.

[@keanodoh5315]

Left me speechless, you shred so effortlessly. So graceful and really really cool man.

[@voyteq1]

[@JulianSAirstriker]

[@voyteq1]

[@wirutan]

Crazy speed, creativity, skill, and flow. And 3:18 just left me speechless! Who needs kickers? lol

[@vladolenin1345]

I've watched this video many times over the last three years and it still amazes me how smoothly you link your butters into spins.

[@RicardoRodriguesRSA]

SUCH STYLE, SUCH FLOW!! RIPPING IT SOLID!! LOVE IT!

[@RicardoRodriguesRSA]

[@4201bm]

your hands are so quite, no wasted movements, upper body so predicable, control that's spiritual. I learn something every time i watch. Choice of music A1.

[@RyanKnapton]

[@1984lsHere]

[@KevinLee-pow]

[@abbyburns7648]

[@vikingrussel]

[@YREHCorp]

nothing better than a good face plant to learn about life. the one with the less teeth at the end wins!

[@이와우-g6g]

[@Changeworld408]

[@vilramos]

I love this video. It is summer now, but this popped up on my youtube. The buttering is awesome, michael jackson music and he is even wearing a red jacket like MJ used to wear. Great job!

[@max80rider]

You have some serious edge control! Love your style!

[@RyanKnapton]

+Abarnhill07 Thanks!

[@Bauer1976]

Dude you make it look soo easy. And soo much fun. Keep shreding.

[@rickyfricky]

This is how I would like snowboarding... this is how everyone would like snowboarding. 😍

[@skltfz4997]

really nice, i like this slow motion butter. and very clean 360

[@wethdtdi]

i have to say.. watching you riding on that song is preeeety awesome

[@RyanKnapton]

+Kalin Gergov thanks!

[@jimmyl1606]

You make it look so fluid. On my 2nd attempt I fell straight onto my coccyx bone. Lets say I was out for a whole week sitting and sleeping on my side. Love you videos!

[@DimSumChum]

1) Practise aggressive toe edge turns (stops essentially) and get very low to the slope, this will help keeping you balanced over your edge 2) Next try continuing the aggressive turn up so you ride back up the slope. (The board will not be perpendicular to the fall line). This helps prevent you from loosing your speed, but keeps your board loose and washy. (Watch the board as he is mid turn) 3) As you complete the turn make sure to counter-rotate your body mid turn Source: I'm an instructor

[@hlausf]

I may never get big air, but if I can just learn to shred like this guy

[@senorcheeto3411]

Long time viewer and this is by far one of your best vids. You should make more exactly like this. It’s insane what you do on the board and people wanna see it!! Thanks again

[@seanlewis3414]

This gets me so stoked!! So smooth. 😎

[@alexb9797]

That nose press at 2:55 ! Incredible style dude.

[@Variushna]

You make it seem so effortless haha. Nice job!

[@OtisAvalon]

That's killer man! Looks like a good day on the hill to me.

[@McDudes]

Never get tired of this video!

[@pandaforce6162]

This is so damn clean holy shit

[@mattgirouard49]

wow bro. You made me laugh because you are truly enjoying the slopes. I am riding a flow drifter and highly doubt I can even attempt that without catching an edge. Props man, you got my psyched to finally get some snow in New England. Peace

[@barsk76]

3 min 40 sec of awesomeness ...

[@douglochery8641]

I've got to say, that's seriously impressive stuff right there, Ryan. Smooth as silk and inspiring to watch. You look like you're having a great time out there and it makes me want to get back on my board. Definitely going to check out the rest of your vids now. Clearly I need to push my highbacks a few notches to help with that edge stability on the butters but I'm already riding +15/-12. My board is a playful little thing (a 2011 Salomon Acid 155) paired up with a set of Union Contract bindings - a lightweight and springy setup to help me overcome some mobility issues I have. Watching you here is certainly spurring me to improve this year and have more fun on the hill. Thanks for sharing!

[@RyanKnapton]

Thank you. Stoked to inspire and I hope ya have as much fun with some of the butters as I do! :)

[@douglochery8641]

You certainly show that flatland diesn't equal boring, man. If I end up with a tenth of your skills I'll be a very happy chappie indeed :)

[@MrAlexMusicman]

Привет Ryan. cool dance on the snowboard.) video is mounted under music super. as if specially for her ridden. surely this track on your iPod right now was.) thanks for the video and style.

[@GiacintoMarcellino]

Definition of AWESOME.

[@mastersh0t]

Нереально круто! Супер! Эмоции переполняют! Молодец!

[@RyanKnapton]

That board will work for sure. Just play around on it and find the right amount of leaning and pressing to do, and you'll be good to go.

[@adrnik19]

awesome man, great choice of music too ;D

[@unusualentertainme6018]

Best thing to watch at 2 in the morning 😂

[@Nathan-dx7le]

Perhaps my favourite RK video, better even than the Nov 2011 video with Enya 'My My' track and the 'fall' at the end. Billie Jean works really well too. Ab-so-lute Boss. 5 days to go...

[@woodTB]

R.K. is definitely the king of Karving.😎

[@floccgotti7095]

His style hit different 🔥

[@longboardhershey]

Am very inspired!! Thank you for the vids and tutorials! Something to take to the slopes when I head on to Hokkaido in a fortnight :D

[@durkadurka8429]

excellent music choice

[@mydee1]

Single by any chance? :p haha No seriously, you have amazing skills Ryan! The elegance and style is outstanding and as a huge fan of MJ's music I think this whole vid is inspiring. there's actually a moment where I got goosebumps (from awe). Mad skills, congrats, the hard work certainly paid off!!!

[@Mr.Pung1]

So smooth! omg, i love watching this! Damn!

[@lefthandstan]

Everyone on the lift is super jelly of his skills.:-)

[@dirtface7203]

Love your unique style.

[@trailertom]

Knapton is the KING of the MOONWALK BUTTER!

[@rosakatten]

So damn easy lookin! wrecked my collar bone 3 weeks ago snowboarding, but I would love to try learn some of this shit. Damn hard though but you make it look Smooth and effortless. Just awesome :)

[@gruhx]

Always nice to see your vids.. Winter is coming now :)

[@ChuckNorrisMr]

I will break some bones trying these tricks in couple of days, wish me luck :)

[@finelines3266]

This guy churns butter

[@Krondelo]

Time to up my carve game! ;) You're a badass dude.

[@RyanKnapton]

Thanks and happy carving / shreddin!

[@tubiak1]

OMG beautifull riding, reallly feeling free out there...

[@SnowDanceFreak]

If I see this, I feel almost like an idiot on my board... damn! that looks pretty easy when you do it!

[@sleevless1]

Wish I could ride 1 day with you to improve my ground game... Always sick vids man

[@EncordialeHD]

jesus the butter is strong within this one

[@Flxlan]

Bow to the King of Snow Pop.

[@willterryart]

Butter that bread!!!

[@gato031]

Best buttering video on youtube

[@onuronur1580]

Sweet style Ryan Knapton , just wondering if you could share where is this place?

[@Effthatjeff]

You killed it man. Love the style. Are you an unlockable character on Cool Boarders 2? lol Anyway I'm going to be watching this a few hundred more times to develop my style. Keep on shreddin' playa

[@PopcornSticker]

yo that is awesome! what a skill on this butters :D

[@TheMrRedPanda]

Very nice vid! Good skills ^^ I saw a couple of things that I want to learn to do now!

[@SynQ86]

Can't imagine how hard you would smack on the ground catching an edge while buttering so aggresively with that speed.

[@RyanKnapton]

Has happened more than a handful of times. Luckily the worst repercussions from it were either wind knocked out of me, or whiplash in the neck and gut... which all in all, pretty darn good compared to some of the snowboarding injuries that happen. :)

[@leftvassis]

being aggressive is the reason hes not falling most the time,speed keeps you balanced and no hesitation keeps you from falling.Most the time at least lol

[@ozzyozzy6728]

what a skill and balance

[@sylvainparis5793]

You are incredible !!

[@Scott_TVs]

your ollies are so high!! like you get enough time to 360 so easily

[@snipingmaniac99]

wow haha I could watch this all day.. too bad I suck at it lol

[@Sloth-01]

Dude. I love these vids. Been working on my carving technique all season so far. I used your vids to just tweak my style slightly and I'm well happy. Only slight problem is I find that in between my heel and toe carve i Bob up and down. I seem to be taller on my toe carve and then get lower on my heel. Is this natural? Any tips mate?

[@RyanKnapton]

Without actually seeing the carves I cant say much, but maybe try keeping the knees bent more all the way through instead of standing more upright in between turns?.. If you end up with some decently shot vid of you carving I'll check it out. Either way, keep working on it and happy shreddin!

[@Sloth-01]

Thanks dude. Going again in 2 weeks so I'll get the misses to film a run.

[@timothy9187]

1:54 he made it look easy

[@giorgosgiamoyridis5687]

harmony moving!!

[@agnosticgloom210]

I hope i'll manage to do this one day...
